- Sporty new VW Transporter models revealed
- Comerce Pro S and Sportline grades
- Add dynamic and styling to commercial line-up
- Offered on panel vans and 'Kombi' models
Volkswagen has expanded its latest-generation Transporter line-up with two eye-catching new trim levels.
The update adds a sharper-looking Commerce Pro S grade, aimed squarely at owner-operators, alongside the return of the flagship Sportline badge.
Both new trims will be offered on panel van and crew cab ‘Kombi’ body styles and will be available across diesel, plug-in hybrid and fully electric powertrains.
Volkswagen Transporter Commerce Pro S: Style-focused upgrade for working vans
For most business users, the new Commerce Pro S is likely to be the more relevant addition. It builds on the existing Commerce Pro trim with a series of cosmetic upgrades, but there are no mechanical changes.
Externally, the new trim level adds 17-inch alloy wheels in gloss black, a body-coloured front splitter, a rear spoiler, gloss black grille detailing, and black mirror caps. Inside, the changes are more subtle, but include illuminated scuff plates, a high-gloss black display surround and illuminated vanity mirrors.
The result is a smarter, more contemporary look for the Transporter, while keeping it firmly positioned as a working van. For owner-operators after something that looks a step above entry-level fleet specification without drifting into lifestyle territory, Commerce Pro S looks to neatly fill that gap.
Volkswagen Transporter Sportline: Premium flagship returns
The new top-of-the-range Transporter sees the return of the familiar Sportline nameplate on this design-led flagship.
The Sportline brings more extensive visual changes, including model-specific front and rear bumpers, side skirts, roof rails, gloss-black exterior detailing, and exclusive 19-inch alloy wheels. The suspension is lowered by 29mm, giving the van a more planted stance than standard Transporter models.
Inside, the Sportline gains eco-leather sports seats with red stitching, a heated leather steering wheel, Sportline-branded trim and additional ambient lighting. A broad range of driver assistance and convenience features is fitted as standard, including an Area View camera system and keyless access.
Volkswagen will also offer a limited-run Sportline 75 special edition to mark 75 years of the Volkswagen Bus. Finished in exclusive Moss Green paint with bespoke interior detailing, production will be limited to just 75 examples.
